ACQUISITIONS
ACQUISITIONS
General
The Company completed the acquisitions discussed below during December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017. The acquisitions were funded through cash on hand or through borrowings under the Company’s credit facility in existence at the time of acquisition. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the individual acquisitions were recorded on the Company’s consolidated statements of financial position at their estimated fair values as of the respective dates of acquisition. For each acquisition, the Company completes its allocation of the purchase price to the fair value of acquired assets and liabilities within a one-year measurement period. For those acquisitions where the purchase price allocation is provisional, which includes only those acquisitions completed in 2019, the Company generally is still in the process of finalizing the fair values of acquired intangible assets, fixed assets, and, if applicable, contingent consideration and deferred tax assets and liabilities. In general, the acquisitions described below provided the opportunity for the Company to either establish a new presence in a particular market and/or expand its product offerings in an existing market and increase its market share and per unit content.
For each acquisition, the excess of the purchase consideration over the fair value of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill, which generally represents the combined value of the Company’s existing purchasing, manufacturing, sales, and systems resources with the organizational talent and expertise of the acquired companies’ respective management teams to maximize efficiencies, revenue impact, market share growth and net income. The goodwill recognized is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes for each of the acquisitions with the exception of the 2018 acquisition of Marine Accessories Corporation and the 2017 acquisition of Leisure Product Enterprises, LLC, for which goodwill is expected to be partially deductible for income tax purposes, and the 2019 acquisition of G.G. Schmitt & Sons, Inc. and the 2018 acquisition of LaSalle Bristol, for which goodwill is not deductible for income tax purposes. Intangible asset values were estimated using income-based valuation methodologies. See Note 7 for information regarding the amortization periods assigned to acquired definite-lived intangible assets.
For the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, revenue of approximately $8.3 million, $249.3 million and $109.7 million, respectively, was included in the Company’s consolidated statements of income pertaining to the businesses acquired in each such year.
For the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, operating income of approximately $0.9 million, $23.2 million and $13.1 million, respectively, was included in the Company’s consolidated statements of income pertaining to the businesses acquired in each such year. Acquisition-related costs associated with the businesses acquired in 2019, 2018 and 2017 were immaterial.
Contingent Consideration
In connection with certain acquisitions, if certain financial targets for the acquired businesses are achieved, the Company is required to pay additional cash consideration. The Company records a liability for the fair value of the contingent consideration related to each of these acquisitions as part of the initial purchase price based on the present value of the expected future cash flows and the probability of future payments at the date of acquisition. The liability for the contingent consideration is measured at fair value in subsequent periods, with the changes in fair value recorded in the consolidated statements of income.

The aggregate fair value of the contingent consideration as of December 31, 2019 was $9.6 million, $2.0 million of which is included in the line item "Accrued liabilities" and $7.6 million is included in “Other long-term liabilities” on the consolidated statement of financial position. At December 31, 2018, the fair value was $13.8 million, $4.4 million of which was included in the line item "Accrued liabilities" and $9.4 million was included in "Other long-term liabilities". The liability for contingent consideration expires at various dates through December 2023. The contingent consideration arrangements are subject to a maximum payment amount of up to $17.2 million in the aggregate as of December 31, 2019. In 2019, the Company recorded a $3.1 million non-cash decrease to accrued liabilities, which is included within selling, general and administrative expense in the consolidated statement of
income, partly offset by a $0.7 million non-cash accretion of other long term liabilities, representing changes in the amount of consideration expected to be paid. In 2019, the Company made cash payments of approximately $4.4 million related to contingent consideration liabilities, recording a corresponding reduction to accrued liabilities.
2019 Acquisitions
Acquisitions completed in 2019 include previously announced Topline Counters, LLC, a Sumner, Washington-based designer and manufacturer of kitchen and bathroom countertops for residential and commercial markets, and G.G. Schmitt & Sons, Inc. ("G.G. Schmitt"), a Sarasota, Florida-based designer and manufacturer of customized hardware and structural components for the marine industry. The total initial consideration for these acquisitions was $54.3 million, plus contingent consideration over a one-year period based on future performance in connection with the acquisition of G.G. Schmitt. The preliminary purchase price allocations are subject to valuation activities being finalized, and thus all required purchase accounting adjustments are subject to change within the measurement period as the Company finalizes its estimates.
